The Best Spotify Playlists For Road Trips

It occurred to me recently while on a road trip that I was constantly switching Spotify playlists, trying to find the best ones to keep me in a good mood. While the constant switching of playlists was probably not remotely safe, I narrowed my search down to my favorite six playlists. They include the right amount of pump up hits, throwbacks and just chill songs.

Name Of Playlist: Songs To Sing In The Car

Length: 8 hours and 35 minutes

Part Of The Road Trip Best For: When you need to jam! This playlist is super long so it will last a good duration.

Includes: "Summer Nights" from Grease, Michael Jackson, Spice Girls and Adele. Since the playlist includes a variety of songs from different generations, it's a great choice if you have people of different ages in the car. Everyone wins!

Name Of Playlist: Chill Hits

Length: 3 hours and 33 minutes

Part Of The Road Trip Best For: When you're the driver and everyone falls asleep. It keeps you awake because of the upbeat music, but also is soft enough to let them sleep.

Includes: "Stay" by Kygo, "Pillow Talk" by Zayn and "Four Five Seconds" by Rihanna. I feel chill already.

Name Of Playlist: Hot Country

Length: 3 hours and 2 minutes

Part Of The Road Trip Best For: When you're driving through backroads and countryside, and have your windows down.

Includes: "I like the sound of that" by Rascal Flatts, "Snapback" by Old Dominion, "The Driver" by Charles Kelly and "That Don't Sound Like You" by Lee Brice

Name Of Playlist: Today's Top Hits

Length: 2 hours and 56 minutes

Part Of The Road Trip Best For: Beginning of the road trip when you're hype and ready to begin your journey.

Includes: "Work From Home" by Fifth Harmony, "My House" by Flo Rida and "In My Room" by Yellow Claw.

Name Of Playlist: Girl Power

Length: 11 hours and 27 minutes

Part Of The Road Trip Best For: After a snack pit stop. You must have food in your stomach to prepare for this bomb playlist.

Includes: "Beg for it" by Iggy, "Wannabe" by Spice Girls and "Say My Name" by Destiny's Child. This playlist is my personal favorite.

Name Of Playlist: Rap Caviar

Length: 2 hours and 56 minutes

Part Of The Road Trip Best For: When you're embracing your inner rapper and need to desperately express it.

Includes: "2 Phones" by Kevin Gates, "Sorry Not Sorry" by Bryson Tiller and "Pop Style" by Drake.

No matter where you're going or how long your trip is, give these a listen and they won't disappoint. Enjoy!

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
